Demetrius Davis was Nevada's gentle giant when he played for the Wolf Pack in the late 1980s.

On one hand, the 6-foot-4, 220-pound Davis liked to brag that he never lost a fight in his life. On the other, he didn't have to engage in fighting, too often. Instead, his aim was to make you laugh.

Davis, one of the best tight ends in Nevada history, passed away Saturday after suffering cardiac arrest following a pickup basketball game. Davis' had an enlarged heart, which caused the massive heart attack. He was just 46.
